An analysis of certain factors in serious accidents in a large steel plant

Abstract

In a steel corporation, 100 accident-prone and 200 accident-free employees were compared on a number of personal, job, and test variables. The "non-test" data, the Otis, and the Bennet-Frye did not differentiate the groups. On the Bernreuter, the accident cases appeared less neurotic, less introverted, and more self-confident to a degree justifying further study.
